Hey there Nadine,
Welcome to planDisney and thanks so much for this question. First, I'm sorry to hear you and your group got sick - I'm hoping for a speedy recovery!
Second, I'm happy to share that it's easier than ever to reschedule a trip to the Disneyland Resort. Currently, to enter one of the parks, you need both a valid
theme park ticket and
theme park reservations for each day of your visit.
Since it sounds like you already have a 1-day ticket, you're all set there. You just will need to reschedule your theme park reservation for the new date of your visit. Typically, I recommend doing this through the
My Plans hub on the Disneyland Resort website, but if you weren't able to cancel your existing theme park reservation before the date of your previously planned visit then you might need to
call a Cast Member at the Guest Information line for some additional assistance on getting the reservation moved.
You'll be able to create that new reservation on any date that's available for your specific ticket type as long as there are theme park reservations available. Note that with 1-day tickets, they follow a
tier system based on the day, so if you have a lower-tier 1-day ticket and want to visit on a day when a higher tier is needed then you might need to upgrade your ticket or select a different date that calls for an equal or lower tier.
If your 1-day ticket expires before you're able to visit then you'll still be able to apply the price for your existing ticket toward the purchase of your next ticket at equal or greater value - so either way, you're covered!
Thanks again for your question, Nadine! I hope that you're able to recover soon and get to planning for your next trip to the Happiest Place on Earth!
Have a Magical Day,
Greg
